3. performed on par to roster talent

On par, I’d say. This is a roster that gets you a bit less than .500, which is exactly where we are.

And we've been doing this for how long now? Isn't it about time to reset at this point?

I challenge everyone to go to bballref and look at our past history in the last ten years. It's pitiful besides that one year we got swept by LeBron. That's the best we can do with the core pieces we laid as foundation for the team.

This ain't it chief.

We’ve been crying out for a reset for years now, at least I have. I wanted us to go full rebuild 10 years ago after the Iverson trade blew up the team.

Of course it’s not it. But it’s what we’ve got and there’s no indicator of a desire or willingness to change course. The longer we wait the harder it is to sell a rebuild to an ownership that’s presided over all that losing. It is amazing that we haven’t changed tactics yet, but I’m long past the point of thinking that’s even possible.

Yeah, I wasn't pointing you out or anything, just a rhetorical question and pointing out the absurdities of this team's history.

If this owner truly was dedicated to winning, then he'd try something different. As much as the team sucks and empty seats, I'm guessing that it still hasn't hit that threshold where it's alarming for ownership to try something new. Fans should honestly boycott at this rate.
